OMEN 30L GT13 1669nz computer beeps 3 times

Today, while playing Minecraft normally, my computer started beeping in sequences of 3 small beeps, I looked online how to fix it, and cleaned my RAM sticks by blowing air onto them (I tried to make sur no water was getting onto them). I then put them back like I was supposed, I launched my computer, and a few minutes after launching up Minecraft again, the beeps started again, how can I fix this? I could buy new RAM sticks, which I was planning on doing anyways, but that isn’t for a few months, so I would like to know quick, thank you.

Hi @NectaLeVelo 

This Link has common BIOS error codes for HP Desktop PCs. There is no single 3 beep error code.

The cadence is three long followed by three short. Or Red LEDs are long and white LEDS are short.

A starting three beep error code suggest some type of hardware problem; System board, power supply, CPU, memory, or graphics.

Advice by @Bill_To is correct if the beep or blinking codes occur during boot up.

If the beep occurs during a game possibly the RTX or the CPU is overheating.

Can you hear the fan on the RTX 3060 speed up during game play?

What about the CPU fan or exhaust fan speeedup?

Download MSI afterburner and enable its fan control.

If problem is CPU overheating then prevent it from going into turbo mode by setting the maximum processsor speed lto %99 instead of %100.  Also, make sure the minimum processor speed is %5 and not %100.

You're right, it wasn't coming from my PC but my cheap Bluetooth speaker, sorry for bothering you all, I fell dumb xD

Hi @NectaLeVelo 

No problem. I jumped to the conclusion your PC was freezing or shutting down.

Then thought you were getting a BIOS error code at startup.
